Teaching beyond the classroom

As MassArt's teaching museum, MAAM is a critical extension of the classroom, a place where faculty and students can interact with contemporary art and learn more about the inspiration and artists behind the works on view.

Interested in bringing your class or group to MAAM? Choose from a self-guided or guided museum experience to meet your learning goals. A self-guided group visit allows you and your students to explore the museum independently at your leisure. During a guided group visit, a museum educator facilitates an experience with your class.
